That first year before your newborn can even get the measles vaccine was pretty fraught when the anti-vax stuff started getting traction a decade or so ago. Can't even imagine now.

People expect miracles from medicine, but refuse the miracle that would let them avoid needing emergency care in the first place

It's also possible that she picked him to make herself look better. "Well, well, well, not so easy to find a [House Dem Leader] who doesn't suck shit, huh?"

I notice we all now know the General's name to whom Hegseth gave the order. I find that unusual, I suspect they're trying to pass the buck downward.

They're good at creating "wedge" issues because they don't actually care about any of it. They find anything they can use to siphon votes and pretend like it's an Existential Threat to Life as We Know It. This is why we're basically a 50/50 country. You can always find something to disagree on.

The big advantage the "Conservative Movement" has is that they don't actually have any ideals, other than the accumulation of power. They've found a constituency (for now) of billionaires, transphobes, and racists. When that's not enough they'll invent some other issues to scare everyone about.

Hello and welcome to Deep Space Nine. We are a space station, not a starship, so you be spending a lot of time with all these delightful side characters like: bisexual fashion lizard. hologram of Frank Sinatra. goblins. goblin comes in 3 varieties: bartender, nephew, and idiot, our doctor is a twink, our commander is antifa and the captain talks to the gods sometimes. our policeman is sometimes a liquid and the science lady is part worm. we have many fine storylines, such as: Goblin Does A Crime, Watch The Irishman Suffer, or The Horrors Of War. As you stroll along our promenade enjoying a raktajino or delicious jumja stick, watch out for our nefarious villains: Pope Karen. clones of Jeffrey Combs. and a horny bastard reptile man who seems convinced this is actually his show. we suspect he may be possessed by demons. Have fun!

We have to use every tool available to us - including our dollars. This Black Friday and weekend @blackvotersmatterfund.org asks you to join β€œWe Ain’t Buyin’ It!” to send a message to Trump’s corporate enablers. Learn more about the companies targeted in this campaign here: weaintbuyingit.com

Im just happy that after a whole day of pie discourse no one has even mentioned the worst pie of all. Hopefully rhubarb just fades into the collective memory hole where it belongs.

This is correct. The "chop job" critiques are fair. It jumps around too much early, with new (to movies) planets and time jumps and, ick. But once the Death Star arrives over Jedha, it becomes the best SW movie from there till the end. Also K2SO is the best droid, ever. (sorry R2 and Chopper).

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

Not really. Neither team did much. Gotham got an officiating gift in the form of a not called second yellow card, and a gift goal in the form of a visible limping and in pain Hal H. Not being subbed off. Last 10 minutes was all whistles and time wasting.

Have we considered the possibility that the "67" meme is caused by Data sending information out of the time loop in an attempt to stop America from crashing into the USS Bozeman?

Know the difference between a Judicial Warrant and an Immigration (administrative) Warrant.

Administrative warrants don’t allow agents to enter private homes. Only judicial warrants, signed by a judge, grant law enforcement the authority to do so.

Do not volunteer additional information.

To further enhance our speed to market, we've also created synthetic audiences," said Fiddelke. "AI-driven models that simulate real consumer populations to preview how different groups could respond to campaigns and products before they ever launch. This allows our marketing and design teams to test, learn, and refine products, promotions, and messaging with incredible speed and efficiency.

Not beating the charges. It’s impressive how willfully they miss the point.

The establishment media especially The NY Times, will crucify him every chance they get. They will invent scandals and hold him to double standards. They will ask him shitty loaded questions and try to embarrass him at every turn. It’s really up to us not to fall for it, again.

It really is, and it does give credence to the idea that Trump is being HEAVILY managed by Miller et al. That he is force-fed propaganda and he always agrees with the last person he talks to.
